Building Today Comes With
More Risk Than Ever

Construction and design firms are navigating increasing complexity across contracts, delivery models, claims, and insurance markets. Risk now extends beyond a single policy or project.

It impacts how your business operates, how projects are delivered, and how outcomes are ultimately determined.

Choosing the right partner is not just about coverage. It is about structuring a risk strategy that performs under real-world conditions.

That is where EPIC Construction & Design is different.

A Different Kind of Risk and Insurance Partner

EPIC Construction & Design is built around specialists who understand how projects actually work.

Our team includes construction lawyers, design professionals, former underwriters, and advisors with experience inside leading firms. That perspective shapes how we assess risk and structure solutions.

We operate as a strategic partner, aligning risk management, insurance, and project execution into a more practical and coordinated approach.

The result is a more informed approach to risk, supported by expertise, across your business and your projects.

What Sets Epic Construction & Design Apart

Our approach is built on three core strengths that define how we deliver results for construction and design firms.

Expertise Built From Inside Construction and Design

Your risk strategy is shaped by the people behind it. EPIC brings together specialists with real experience in the AEC industry, including construction lawyers, design professionals, former underwriters, and advisors who have worked inside leading firms.

We build teams around your specific business, so you have the right expertise applied where it matters most.

Risk Strategies Aligned With How Projects Are Delivered

We operate as a strategic partner, not a transactional broker. Our focus is on how risk impacts your business, your projects, and your long-term performance.

From program design to claims advocacy and contract alignment, we help structure a risk strategy that reduces uncertainty and improves outcomes.

Built to Support Complex Projects at Any Scale

EPIC delivers the reach of a national platform with the focus of a dedicated specialty practice. We support clients across regions, projects, and complex risk environments without losing the high-touch service that drives results.

Our model is built for long-term partnership, providing stability, continuity, and the ability to grow with your business.

Built on Real Construction and Design Experience

EPIC Construction & Design supports firms across the full spectrum of the built environment, from contractors and specialty trades to architects, engineers, owners, and developers.

Our work spans complex projects, evolving delivery models, and multi-stakeholder environments where risk is shared, transferred, and tested over time.

We bring that experience into every engagement, helping clients navigate challenges that go beyond placement and require a deeper understanding of how projects are structured and delivered.

It Starts With How We Think About Risk

Every engagement begins with a disciplined, specialized approach to understanding risk in the context of your business and your projects. We do not start with predetermined solutions. We start with how risk is structured, where it can break down, and what drives outcomes.

That work is grounded in data, benchmarking, and real-world analysis. We assess how your risk compares across peers, identify structural inefficiencies, and uncover opportunities to improve program program outcomes before they show up in claims or cost.

See how this approach can work for you.
